Hello my dear adults or kids
#quest-general
zinc niche
The quest charger plug triggers me
sturdy turtle
I just ordered my quest it comes in the 24 would any one like to play together on vrchat when I get it?
worldly compass
So I got my Quest and was setting it up and all the far objects, especially in VRChat it looks pretty bad imo close things seem to be much better. Best example for me is the mirror. close up it looks decent but fruther away it looks very low res is the only thing how I can describe it. I did all the DPI Setting and what not, but it didn't really help. The overall expereince is fascinating, but the low res feel puts a dent into it
worldly compass
I mean I used Quest Link to use my own PC for VR Chat not the Quest itself per se, forgot to mention that.
Just trying to figure out if something is wrong with the quest or if VR looks a little low res in general. I can read the text, but it also looks somewhat off, not really sharp
worldly compass
so those who have oculus account don't need to? I don't have feckin FB...

oof, my account that I made for games when I was younger got hacked
sweet yarrow
Damn
worldly rapids
That requirement is very annoying but making a fake Facebook account isn't too hard at least.
jagged trench
yeah but that's probably a bad idea as if they find out your headsets bricked
worldly rapids
That can't possibly be real. That'd be literally insane.
brave peak
Also, 2023 will require existing Oculus users to connect to facebook, as well as new.
So, uh... 3 years to find a new headset, boys.
haughty coyote
anyone know how to fix the out of memory error? I clear my cache regularly and never get near the 4 gig ram max.
haughty coyote
I know it sounds weird, but I love how my oculus smells
worthy dune
not weird, nothing beats the smell of a new headset tbh
or computer parts
or any kind of tech really
haughty coyote
I cant wait till i get my headset in like 9 days

Does anyone have a Titan Fall avatar
haughty coyote
It's a beta thing where you have to access on the quest interface and go into experimental features
south wedge
So... when im travelling for vrchat and umm my screen vr keeps blinking HMMM
Vrchat wth did you do to quest
south wedge
Now I know why. Its the mic permission that keeps popping up
pastel jewel
Does anyone know why I can't hear anyone talking when I'm in a world on my Quest? The shield is set to none, and the volume in game in on the Quest itself is turned up all the way
worldly compass
@worldly rapids your headset won't be bricked, but you would lose every Game you Purchased when your FB is closed down for any reason and need to make a new one to access the Headset again.
Have to wait for a new low cost VR seller with similar quality I am afraid...
past isle
i enjoy the oculus quest for now but soon i will going to buy hp reverb g2 or valve index, good bye oculus I'm done.
worldly compass
I unfortunately couldn't to uncomfortable to wear even after a lot of adjustments
I know now that I would rather look for a VR Gaming Headset that is comfortable to wear for hours, which does not require to buy 50 to 100€ extra accesoires to do so.
quiet dock
It is normal that when I open the menu in vrchat it is marked that I have the user rank but in social on my profile that marks visitors?
haughty coyote
Is quest worth it for how little you can see for example avatars etcs?
quiet dock
oh never mind now I also see in social the rank user
woeful cypress
@haughty coyote it's a question of a lot of personal matters
As a standalone it's good if you start out and build your friendbase around quest people. (and dont miss out on what you already had on PC)
It's portable and can be taken anywhere.
You also have the option to combine it with your PC if you want to making it a quite decent PC headset that with third party software could even be fully wireless.
haughty coyote
To me its the case of a lot of my avatars being custom (paid to be made for me) and arent quest compatible, is the connection to pc able to fix that?
woeful cypress
Oculus LINK makes it like any other PC headset
But you fit into the "already on pc" part then.
Quest standaone would likkely not be an option for you then unless you are willing to "downgrade" what you learned.
Quest LINK will work like a normal PC VR Headset.
haughty coyote
Would a standalone pc headset be better as a starting one?
worldly compass
@haughty coyote I personally found the Quest uncomfortable to wear for longer than an hour even after fiddling around quite some time with the strap. The Rift S is supposedly one of the most comfortable to wear, but I saw a lot of posts in my research that FB is incompetent to fix a connection issue and refuse to roll back the update. I don't know if that issue is still present. So someone who does know should answer that. Also Rift S looks better on PC than Quest despite the higher res display, at least that is what I read.
I will go with Comfort so I can play for hours over most other factors, so I am contemplating just getting the Index.
haughty coyote
The robotic mic issue is due to your motherboard USB controller, not the headset itself. When it starts fighting for bandwidth, than the mic will start to sound really static. I don't have this issue on my mobo, but I have experience it with the same headset on another computer

I wonder if they’re ever gonna fix the walking animations being broken on some avatars along with the laying down idle animation having the hands scuffed

hi
acoustic parrot
I'm surprised none of my newer avatars have broken yet with all the vr chat changes other then flying in the air in seated play sometimes
weak flicker
@acoustic parrot you have to be in the position you're gonna be seated in before opening the game
Also is vrchat getting worse for some of you?

I keep having the out of memory error and can’t seem to access new worlds anymore. Old worlds take forever to load too

If anyone knows the fix I’d be grateful

Heyooo
haughty coyote
to the discussion above, I experienced some headache and irritated cheeks from where the headset rested on after a while of playing, however I find it doable if you're someone that plays maybe 2-3 hours a day, I also started getting used to it so I don't get headaches anymore and I'm not bothered by how the headset rests on my head, idk how it is if you play for longer tho, I guess more comfort is more of a factor if you exceed that playtime at once
Also this is without any accessories, there are other straps for the quest that make it more comfortable to wear, just gotta buy them extra

so when I'm linked and the cable disconnects briefly, after linking back my avatar is in the floor and controls unresponsive. is there a fix other than reloading the game?
haughty coyote
Has anyone here tried the link with a GTX 970

hey, when I go on vrchat on my oculos quest it starts blinking to black and back to the map again and again, I don't know what to do.

Does anyone here have Oculus Quest with Full Body?
haughty coyote
does the quest even support fullbody?
I've been told by a lot of people it doesnt.
haughty coyote
the qwuest does support full body
i am currently trying to find people who know how to set it up using an xbox one kinect
I know how with the Vive Trackers, even though I don’t have them, but not Kinect
celest fulcrum
w8 u can fullbody w a quest??
storm ginkgo
with a quest link yes. I have a Quest + Link + 2 vive base stations + 3 vive trackers
I previously did Kinect360 before I got my trackers
https://k2vr.tech/ is the free software for kinect, it has an instrucitonal video that helps sort things out. There's another software, Driver4Vr, that's paid but it's also maintained frequenly and has active tech support/forums, it does have a demo mode if the free software doesn't work well for you, it worked ok for me.

The last two times I’ve played vrc using my quest (I plug into my laptop) the mic doesn’t register on the quest. I have to restart sometimes once or twice my laptop and the quest before the mic will work ?! Any ideas? It used to work fine before...

I have a question, my friend on quest can't see anyone online despite, reinstalling, checking internet, clearing cache, blocking and unblocking, etc. Everyone else can be online but they won't show up on their end. I can't see them online either and I was wondering if it can be fixed? Thank you!

@haughty dagger have you checked that windows is using the quest microphone, in the sound settings for input device?
Furthermore, and I guess this could apply to @charred trellis, have you checked settings in VRchat itself? I assume you have, but just checking

Not sure what's going on here but
USB C on motherboard:
-Works with charge cable (2.0), but compression is so bad it's unusable
-Works with Link Cable (3.0), but no microphone, and some compression
-Works with Third Party ANKER cable (3.0), but no microphone and also does not charge, and really bad compression
USB C on GPU:
-Works with charge cable (2.0), with some compression
-Works with Link Cable, (3.0) with no compression (crystal clear image), but microphone does not work
-Works with Third party ANKER cable (3.0), but does not charge and has some compression
In general:
Charge cable: Works, but lots of compression
Link cable: Works, but microphone doesn't work
ANKER cable: Works, but quest does not charge

When are we gonna get an update that doesn't make us feel alienated because we can't see pc avatars motions on quest

“Opt to show random default quest avatars” in place of robots maybe?

My PC purchase finally went through
lilac jungle
@acoustic parrot I don't have a set recommendation idea but I do suggest a variety. Cartoon characters and anime are very popular but I think one needs to think outside the box. Maybe animals (not furries, but actual animals) Maybe uncommon cartoon ones, maybe ones that just look like humans.
As I have only a Quest, these might already exist for PC but I have yet to see them for Quest. (Granted I have many Quest worlds I have not yet seen)
haughty coyote
@acoustic parrot Bayonetta doesn’t have a Quest avatar, maybe less common characters such as her and maybe Adventure Time ones, I haven’t seen any of those for Quest or many in general
jolly creek
Probably because no lower poly count models exist for those characters. Quest has strict limits on the amount of detail a model can have. While PC also has a limit, it's pretty generous how far it'll let you go before instantly slapping a

if someone have the same problem , please help me.. i don't know what to do .. x..x

You need to calibrate the playspaces. There's a program that makes is super easy. Thrillseeker did a tutorial here

Yuki, the original Oculus Quest will still be supported with updates and stuff, they aren't just chucking it out the window. If you have the original Quest already, just keep it and use it, the new Quest will just have some quality of life improvements, nothing massive. If you do want the new one still, just sell your old Quest for the $400 and someone will buy it fast, but if you don't care, keep your Quest, it'll still be around for many years

The native version of VR chat on quest 2 is still not going to be able to see content built for only windows.
Quest 2 looks like a lovely inexpensive headset, but I would still only recommend going for it if you have a good PC capable of VR to play VRchat on via link cable.
That way you can see everyone

Im thinking of upgrading from my windows mixed reality odyssey plus headset to the Oculus Quest 2.
I have a pc to use the pc link cable as well so i should be able to treat it as a normal vr headset as well.
Does anyone have any reason i shouldnt buy the Quest 2?
I hear the specs and things are good, so the only downside i have is the buttons for finger expressions and such? The trackpad is removed or smaller i think in the 2nd one?
Also i assume if i use the link cable i can still stream vrchat pc version with my OBS.

im sure it'll all work out or i'll adapt to the buttons anyway actually.
I just want to know if its worth it ig since i'll be using the link cable pretty much 75% of the time

when you use oculus link with an oculus quest, does it play the quest version of vrchat or the rift version of vrchat? how about using usb cable with oculus quest?

It plays the rift version. And you don't need the oculus link cable anymore. Most usb c cables work now, including the charging cable

@haughty coyote is it better to use rift s or oculus quest with link for vrchat?
i can't bear to play it if i can't see the characters properly in quest version lol

Before I would have said rift s. But the quest was just discontinued and replaced with the quest 2, which is cheaper than the rift s and has much better specs

@haughty coyote do you think quest with link is better than rift s for vrchat?
haughty coyote
Probably. The quest 2 has higher resolution than the valve index while the rift s is lower than the index. It also has redesigned controllers and a new processor.
The rift s was great, but I feel that oculus will soon leave it behind and focus much more on this new quest
lucid token
@haughty coyote do games other than vrchat play in rift version with the link cable or is it only vrchat?
haughty coyote
Once you use link, your computer treats it like a full rift. So steamvr and all that works
lucid token
@haughty coyote i read some people say that the linking the quest results in a lot of issues compared to rift which is much smoother is that true?
haughty coyote
Yeah it was true when I used it. That's why I got the rift s over quest with link after using them. But the experience has gotten a lot better, and now the new quest has a really good processor, where as the old one was outdated when it launched
lucid token
@haughty coyote if i use oculus link do i need a pc with gpu? or does it just use the oculus quest to process

Anyone else having this weird problem where like the clipping distance on your avatars viewpoint is like ridiculously short? My head is like clipping through everything even though I don’t see myself being that close to it. I didn’t notice any updates at all... it was fine this morning
marble marsh
You may be talking about the near clipping plane which is world dependent. Some worlds can have the near clipping plane really close to your face and others can extend it out quite far.
undone flare
I didn’t even know you could change that, I’m in a world of mine that I haven’t updated the quest version of since yesterday, it was fine this morning.
marble marsh
Pretty sure being other worlds can change it and it may remain stuck unless a different world comes along and changes it to a really low value. Which sounds odd admittedly, this part is just saying what I heard from other users may be false may be true.
undone flare
It’s my home world, I’ll see if i can try bouncing around a few worlds and see if it fixes itself
marble marsh
As an aside I noticed on the Oculus version of the game (PC) the near clipping plane is set out quite a bit further then it is on PC.
Don't know if that's the case on Quest however.
undone flare
Honestly it’s all super weird to me.
I’ll try and figure it out more later, I should have gone to bed quite a while ago..

Link sure, otherwise it will still be the same arm based platform that needs the avatars build separately for it
And they can't just immediately drop support for quest 1

Always wanted a Quest to experience it. I'm not into full body tracking so I'm wondering if this would feel better than my CV1. An issue I frequently heard about with Quest was blurry visuals as it didn't render the edges of the screen. If anyone finds out if it's improved please let me know.
I'd be using a link.

Silly question, but does anyone know if VRChat will increase any world, or avatar limits now that the Quest 2 is has more power and Memory?
lavish bobcat
My response is entirely speculation but I doubt it. There are still thousands of people who own the original Quest and will probably use it for a while before upgrading to the Quest 2. If they increased the base Quest limits then they'd be leaving all of the original Quest owners behind.
haughty coyote
I think a lot of the new power for the quest will go to rendering at the higher resolution and refresh rate. Also I heard it helps with link streaming more. But the base vrchat quest experience probably won't change for a while

But it doesn't matter if your playing vrchat
deft peak
Hey guys, I am sorry if this was brought before but I would like to know if is possible to have the full PC experience of VRC with the Quest 2 and its beef up specs. I held of buying the first quest because I felt I would be missing a lot of the experience
Have the devs commented anything about it?
blazing sparrow
@deft peak no.
Reasons:
- Content still has to be built for the device.
- It's not a PC.
It 2x the CPU/GPU performance of the original Quest.
astral kernel
Just better frames and better resolution
But the graphics are still so so
I saw the game play pc vr function that onthat is bad
The light tracing is very obvious that quest is missing that. But
Quest 2 is definitely better then quest
And definitely on par with rift s
Just don't expect insane graphics in half life Alex

And definitely on par with rift s
@astral kernel Technically, the Rift S is limited by the PC running it, so that's kinda wrong

I'll hold off on getting the elite strap unless i find the included one uncomfortable

worthy stag
guys when am using virtual desktop and i plug my headphones into the quest and go into vrchat settings i can change mic input to virtual audio the only one that appears is the pc mic
anyone know how to solve that?
wanton imp
@deft peak I don't have a Quest but people will tell you that the VRChat experience is the same as using a PC as long as you connect the Quest to an appropriate PC using the link cable. Buying the cable from Quest is costly but some cheaper aftermarket cables do not work well. But this means you are tethered to the PC and it has to be a PC with a sufficiently powered graphics card.
@blazing sparrow or others - Maybe you want to correct my response to @deft peak if you think it's wrong? I'm unable to judge personally whether the link cable still results in any lag or performance issues, and I haven't read about any.
@broken pebble You asked about Quest handtracking on VRC; I've read that it would require a change to the VRChat code. I've been looking for some indication that this might be in the works but haven't found it.

Just wanted to put this out there. I would like to build a art gallery in VRC for Quest but I need to hire someone to build it. Does anyone know of anyone that I could hire to build this Gallery?

@wanton imp Thank you for the reply. Hopefully it come soon, especially with the possible improvements with the Quest 2
proven ibex
i dont know if my question was ever answered by anyone but re-ask.
Should i upgrade from my WMR odyssey+ to the Quest 2 w/ using usb c cable for link
and if i did get quest 2. SHOULD i use my usb c cable as a link cable? $80 is kinda pricey for a link cable.
at the same time, its not a full-pc vr headset. im not picky about that and reverb g2 removed the trackpad and index is very pricey so idk when i'll be able to upgrade otherwise.
blazing sparrow
@wanton imp I think what David meant was 'Are we able to have the full PC experience on the standalone version of VRChat?'

@blazing sparrow Thanks that's possible (it's what everyone wants I guess).

I sooo want to preorder a Quest 2 and make some friends who play on it.
proven ibex
Im seeing news about the quest link cable and charging and other cables and im confused about most of it.
Using a link cable with the quest to pc keeps the charge steady, but using a regular usb c cable... doesnt? or does it?
a lot of mixed reviews everywhere.
I am NOT getting a reverb g2 since it removed the trackpad for sure. its either quest 2, or i'd have to save up for index for an upgrade
zealous salmon
third party cable pretty much
The Quest 2 will have short Charging cable that is USB 2.0 as it can be useable for Oculus link
proven ibex
the link cable was $80 so i was on the fence if i really needed it if i ended up getting a quest since, i have my own USB C cables anyway.
But if using my regular usb c cables mean the quest... wont charge AS its plugged in?
zealous salmon
Not sure, my cable I brought was charging and wasn't anymore
proven ibex
might end up not getting quest 2, and slowly save for an index instead
proven ibex
ah nvm index is base stations and quest 2 is inside out tracking, that means a lot to me.
viscid plinth
quest 2 has hand tracking, wondering if vrchat team is interested into adding that feature to the game since we already have hand tracking for index.
quartz cargo
I hope the Quest 2 will work with the tutorials that bring full body to the Rift, Rift S, and Quest 1.
I've got a spare original Vive and a bunch of tracking pucks, little project for another month perhaps.
jagged trench
I doubt they're going to add the hand tracking as one big difference between the index tracking and the quest tracking is you cannot use the VR controllers while using the hand tracking on the quest so you have no methods to open the menus or move
viscid plinth
A vrchat user made a udon menu, where it was entirely base on hand movement, and was pretty good, better than our actual UIs
jagged trench
yeah but you're still in a bit of trouble without a Locomotion method
proven ibex
basically i just want to know if i upgrade from my WMR odyssey+ to a quest 2 using link cable.
Treating it mostly as a pc vr headset.
Is it worth the upgrade.
Cause if the link cable, doesnt cause any sort of extra lag or graphical issue thats... CRAZY noticable. and i can still use it to stream vrchat? Then i think i'd end up buying a quest 2 since it'll just be the headset i have now, with portable wireless options.
basically the link cable turns the quest 2 into... a full pcvr rift s type vr headset, so i think imma get it.
viscid plinth
your graphics card can handle the quest 2 resolution? is 1832 x 1920 per eye
proven ibex
graphics... gpu? I have rtx 2060
viscid plinth
guess the base 2060 is ok, the super will be ideal due to the extra 2gb of vram it has.
I don't know if streaming will be doable due to quest 2 having around 65%~ more pixels to drive than the odyssey, wich means more vram.
well due to the lack of reviews not sponsored by facebook, we can't say if its safe to drive with graphics cards with less than 8gb while streaming.
Remember that hp reverb g2 resolution is around 30 to 40% higher than quest 2, and requires minimum the 2060super.
So i will advice you to wait a little.
jagged trench
and also from chatting with someone who did get a pre-release quest 2 basically the link is currently capped at like the quest ones bandwidth so it's not going to be loads better compared to the quest one at the moment

I've been using an overclocked 1060 6GB for my Vive, I wonder if it can handle the Quest 2 with the link cable.

I so want to love the Quest 2, I hope it turns out to be great. Watching all the reviews

theres no way im getting the hp reverb g2, i'd miss the touchpad on the controllers anyway.
i dont really care about the whole, facebook connection thing.
Literally EVERYTHING tracks you and takes ur data. not just facebook.
Believe me, i dislike facebook. I dont rlly use my account on it.
But i dont care about the login thing.
If the link cable is quest 1 bandwidth currently then.... idk is it still... useable? If theres minor lag or sorts i can deal with it i believe.

does anyone know the server code for utp police on vr chat, i think its called utp

proven ibex
if not an upgrade. does the quest 2 (with link cable or usb c cable) EQUAL a windows mixed reality odyssey+
i dont want a reverb g2, mainly cause its controllers are missing the touchpad feature tbh,, .
and i dont want an index cause its twice the price, and doesnt have inside out tracking, i can only use it in the room the base stations are in.
so if quest 2 was at least equal to the odyssey+ when it uses link cable... i might get it?
but more pixels = more vram so my stream might lag a little more hmm
quartz cargo
I want the Quest 2 so badly now, I would like to see if virtual desktop streaming is good on it. But I would probably prefer the link cable. So many things I'd like to try with it.

it would be great if all PC avatars would blocked for Quest but Quest users would be able to unblock them if they want

That wouldn't be possible just because of the fact that the content has been build for pc and android can't load that content
The devs would love to have somekinda system like that but it's not that easy

Can I ask what the update for quest was ?

proven ibex
@haughty coyote yes they can
red quartz
Did we ever get a conclusive answer on if the Quest 2 will have a higher accessibility to PCVR content on VRChat standalone (Not connected by link?). I understand that the devs will want to keep a certain level of limitations in place for Oculus Quest 1 users, but it seems many games on the Oculus Store (like Walking Dead Saints and Sinners) will already be distinguishing between the two headsets and changing their limitations and requirements based upon which you are using.
violet lodge
One of the problems will still be that the content was build for a different system architecture android vs windows
quartz cargo
I can't wait to try out quest titles when I get the headset. I want to play every title exclusive to each platform~
jagged trench
the quest 2 will be exactly the same as the quest one as far as content accessibility without a Link cable because they probably want more stable framerate then shiny avatars vrchat
haughty coyote
@red quartz the main limiting factor to pcvr content isn't how powerful the hardware is, it's due to the quest running an arm based processor using Android, and most of the content being designed for a pc processor running windows.
The way the content is encoded when uploaded makes the quest unable to understand stuff made for pc only
red quartz
@haughty coyote I get that. I have uploaded stuff on VRchat and seen the different systems. I am not asking about Quest users playing on PC servers, instead asking about Quest limitations being laxxend on the Android "Quest" servers.
jagged trench
still doubt they're going to increase the maximum as they need to maintain quest one compatibility
as the quest 1 and 2 get the same store

Anyone with a Quest 2 knows if the charging cable could also suffice for playing on the PC? My laptop has a USB-C port, so I should be good, right?

@amber sparrow i am not sure but i heard the quest 2s charging cable is way shorter but maybe you can use the quest charging cable for it
amber sparrow
That was my concern too if the cable was going to be too short, but I might manage if it's not too bad. I'll get the Oculus Link if it ends up shorter than it is, but maybe I'll need to find people who have the Quest 2 early and have tried it.
worldly rapids
USB-C works just as well as the link cable from what I hear. Just get a decent size one so you don't have restricted movement.
proven ibex
i just wanted to know if the Quest 2 w/ link cable is equal to, or better than Windows mixed reality Odyssey+
Cause i want inside out tracking still so index is out of question, and i want the trackpad, so reverbg2 is out of the question.
quartz cargo
Hoping that the link cable performance is good compared to just using my vive. I do have a USB C port.
What are the performance hits on a PC when using the link cable vs virtual desktop? I use a laptop for my headsets and try get all the performance I can. Do either of these options use the GPU for encoding/compression? to take strain off of the CPU.
marble marsh
Depends on the GPU, some can encode better (and faster) then others. With link and virtual desktop you're rendering the game on your PC and then streaming the output to the quest where a more traditional VR headset directly shows the rendered frame with no compression.
Theoretically the Quest 2 has a way to stream uncompressed video / frames to the Quest 2 but whether facebook / oculus will take advantage of that has yet to be seen.

Hey, what your guys opinion on quest full body with a Kinect sensor?
Also does the 360 Kinect work better than the 1?
storm ginkgo
360 works better as the 1 can interfear with the quest IR. and kinect is decent for the cost, it allows you to twist the hips and kick the legs, but it's not a substitute for lay-down or sit-down full body.
360 requires a cheap adaptor to connect to the pc

haughty coyote
Can someone tell me what I need to have full body with the quest 2?

@last crag as far as software/performance goes no. The only thing I've heard that's a "drawback" is that the strap is lacking compared to the original, but for an extra $50 you can get the "elite strap" to make it more bearable. That and I think that battery life is lower but I'm not too sure on that one
woeful cypress
Battery is similar. I dont think the strap is that much of a drawback because that's why it's cheaper. And they offer a better one extra or even one with a integrated battery for extending battery time if you prefere the comfort.
haughty coyote
Battery life is about half an hour lower because it has so mucb power built in, but with the Elite Battery Strap, you should get around an extra 1.5-2 hours of battery life

I was watching an unboxing video of an Oculus Quest 2 and the contents in the box, and it seems the charging cord could be manageable for playing if you have a USB-C port. I have a gaming computer for this as I have tried it with the Oculus Rift and it ran well. I could be wrong, but hopefully Oculus still allows you to play using a charging cable. It does seem to be the case if the charging cord is this long.

i wonder what limits VRC will put on Quest 2 because ngl, some of the limits for the first one were kind of dumb and they didn't test if it could handle it they just assumed it was bad rather than stress testing themselves
I'm PC now so it's not my problem but putting Quest users down with limits on things like audio sources is just kind of dumb and disrespectful to the community that uses it
jagged trench
they're unlikely to change the limits as they can't break compatibility with Quest 1
haughty orchid
they could just add support for a "third" platform
jagged trench
not sure if Facebook would even allow that as there is only one Oculus store
and also the dev team would probably prefer the extra frame rate as that makes Oculus less grumpy at them
haughty orchid
as someone that used to be forced to use the dumbed down Quest version I ran into multiple Quest avatars that were made with "hacked" SDKs and they were being used in Club worlds, it did not interfere with other audio sources or the performance
it's literally just sound
I think the avatar also had some forced shaders and animations on it that semi loaded on Quest because it had the broken purple shader placeholder effect
so what I'm saying is instead of not listening to the community they should buy a Quest and do stress testing themselves and make it work
though it's not my problem anymore, I just think the Quest and Quest users deserve more respect

haughty orchid
if its a 3.0 avatar it literally can't use them
3.0 avatars and 2.0 avatars have completely different emote systems
simple path
Question: Is there a way I could project my iphone screen into vrchat?
haughty orchid
That's a shitty joke
I've seen the inside of a quest, it's more than an android phone
It has an actual GPU
haughty orchid
You cant play vrchat on the iPhone
haughty orchid
But you can find a bunch of RIP offs on the app store
simple path
I meant just playing vrchat and is there a way to have it so what is on your phone is projected to a screen ingame
if that makes sense
haughty orchid
Idk
simple path
mhm
haughty orchid
Probably through a pc remote app

i’ll finally be able to link my oculus today and use some nice avatars

Can full body trackers work with quest 2?

if you are linked to pc and own vive lighthouses yes
or if you use a kinect

is the quest 2 good for vrchat?? im thinking on buying it as its a lil less and to try vr out
woeful cypress
This kind of question is always problematic.
Did you play VRChat on the PC before?
fierce obsidian
Did you play VRChat on the PC before?
@woeful cypress yes! I have I still do play on my computer, is it ok if its a laptop?
woeful cypress
If you want to use it for VRChat on mobile / running on the quest then it's sure okay and better then Q1.
You will not be able to see PC Avatars or Worlds, but it's not a big deal as you'll build a friendbase around quest users and these will have compatible ones.
If you use the Quest2 for PC then it's just like any PC VR headset. 
(This requires a strong and VR Capable PC, so you laptop is likly not gonna cut it.)

@woeful cypress I dont know how to tell u what type of laptop I have but its a Acer gaming laptop,,, all I can say is that it was 500 dollars eek (sorry if im bothering u tho I just need help on this)
woeful cypress
500€ new? Then it sure wont be.
little garden
I just have a quick question for you paul
fierce obsidian
500€ new? Then it sure wont be.
@woeful cypress yea can I send the link of what it is?
woeful cypress
The issue with beeing on PC prior might be that your old friends you now have will likly not have Quest compatible content. 😦
Sadly many people dont care. 😦
little garden
If i transfer my quest account over to quest 2 will i lose my friend list/ avatars?
woeful cypress
it's the same account
You have a oculus account.
Works on both quest and pc (oculus client)
little garden
Okay
fierce obsidian
How do u know if ur laptop would be compatible?
woeful cypress
If your laptop costed you 500€ new, it's gonna be having a iGPU and no powerfull dedicated graphics

I currently play on PC but i already main quest compatible avatars (have 2 that are very good). So switching to quest in the future won't be a problem for my favorite avatars.
The one in my profile picture is one of them
haughty coyote
Do you guys think like
Quest users will ever be able to see PC avatars
And is there a chance the VRCHAT team will make a better optimized build on the quest 2 with like more textured stuff?
quiet vigil
oh i dont know, quest 2 is not that much powerful compare to 1 so I would think probably not much change in the vrchat system gonna happen, probably just gonna run a bit better with what we have now
With Quest two if they could change some of the limits in avatar creation could be nice because 10k polygon limit is really low.
haughty coyote
I’m just hoping for better optimization
If the quest is bringing in more people into the community that would tempt them to make the quest version better right?
Quest 2 is more powerful for sure, but it still runs on android and uses an ARM processor. This makes it unable to read content made just for pc as they're encoded differently and incompatible
I see
Well if the improved specs made it better- how much FPS do you think it would add in general? Like 10 more?
The new quest is quite a lot more powerful than the old one. New one uses a cutting edge processor, where as the old quest was using an outdated processor at launch
Also more ram
That’s a bruh moment lol
I can't give any specifics. But likely will be the same content, but higher fps, stability, and yeah.. idk really. Just making guesses
I see
Well what do you currently play it on? PC?
steep crescent
A little question. I've quest compatible avatars but i wonder how they actually look on quest since i currently only have a PC. Would anyone be willing to quickly go into a room with me and share screenshots?
If the limit is 10k Polygons on quest my current favorite avatars should have differences on PC and quest since on PC they've more than 10k. One of them almost has 300k Polygons on PC and is quest compatible.
quiet vigil
300k is oof, even on pc.
You can have more than 10k on quest but, it gives the avatar the very poor mark and is automatically blocked unless they decide to manually show your avatar.
So myself when i do avatars, I try to keep them under those limits
steep crescent
It's one of the 3.0 avatars and i can customize it via the menu a lot, which probably adds a lot to the polygons
quiet vigil
well if it has item you can toggle every item will have their own poly even when hidden
steep crescent
Yes it has a lot of avatar customization/own character models for animations and a lot of toys
Whats the hard limit of Polygons on quest?
quiet vigil
uhh, that i dont know. biggest ava I ever made was like 30k and i dont remember seeing a hard limit
steep crescent
So avatars with quest compatibility should look the same as on PC?
Even if they've very high detail?
My current main avatar that is quest compatible has 72k Polygons
quiet vigil
if the avatar is only using the standard shaders then it should look the same
well very similar
but most of the time pc avatars use pv only shaders so you have to use something else on quest
steep crescent
Mmh... I wonder how mine looks on quest then.
Oh oops, wrong avatar, my main one actually has 135k Polygons
I hope it's allowed to upload pictures here, but the permission is given here so guess yes
Don't know much about shaders
Can't tell what it uses
quiet vigil
did you upload that avatar yourself in unity? you can see the shader it uses in there after clicking on one of the part.
steep crescent
No its a public one
quiet vigil
ok in that case its hard to say but usually this kind of model is pretty flashy. When I look at the outline it might be the poiyomi Shader
to give you an idea try to look at someone with the same avatar but with all shaders off.
so if the avatars wasnt made with quest in mind most of the time it will simply look flat
steep crescent
Ok thx i'll ask a friend later if he can copy it
quiet vigil
if your friend copy it dont forget to change your safety settings cause by default everything is ON with friends.
(Of course to even be able to see it on quest the person who uploads the avatar has to upload a quest version of it or else all they will see is the default robot with a ed picture of the avatar on their chest.)
steep crescent
Yes the avatar in my screenshot is quest compatible
Just dont know how it really looks there

You must obtain at least "New User" Trust Rank in our Trust and Safety system in order to upload content. You can get this by just spending a few hours in VRChat, hop some worlds, and make some friends. Give it some time and you'll be able to upload content in no time.
As an aside, you must have a VRChat account to upload content. That means you can't use a Steam account, Oculus account, or Viveport account to upload content like worlds or avatars.

Should I get the 256 gb or the 64? What difference does it make ?

how much storage space you have for games on the Quest

It depends on what your preference is, are you more hardcore or casual
Hardcore would be the 256, casual would be 64

Are Quest easy to get? I remember I tried to buy a Rift S during summer and was never able to, always sold out.
Oh, Quest 1 no longer available. I guess I can try getting a second hand version 1 for less if the price is good
haughty coyote
@quiet vigil the quest was just discontinued. The quest 2 is coming out soon for $100 cheaper
Rift s is discontinuing too
quiet vigil
ye, at the time I wanted a rift S but got something instead that was available. I knew Q2 was coming but didnt think about discontinuation of Q1 ( but that makes sense).
Well not too much in a hurry I guess ill wait.

Say can anyone confirm if the hand tracking on the Quest 2 works in vrc? like individual fingers?
haughty coyote
Quest hand tracking hasn't been implemented in vrchat (yet. No official word so far)
jagged trench
and not likely to be implemented anytime soon due to the lack of locomotion with hand tracking and having to redo the UI to function with no physical buttons
blazing sparrow
Yeah, that's not how those work @untold saffron
It just sends you to a strange place unless you're already in the server.
i'm just pointing out that that's not how message links work

kno what i hate most about quest vrc? how all we get is lil kids runnin around while reg vrc membs hang and have almost nightly parties
and those reg vrc members look down on quest users lmaooo

(also pls add unsocial and invite me if u kno where there's a quest party or sweet chill sesh)
n tbh i aint even pissed i can't see my titties jiggle. what is the absolute worst is this whole thing made some kinda' group with a superiority complex

ok dum question did quest 2 will run the vrchat ?
timid wedge
It should. The real question is if they'll relax avatar limitations for the Quest 2.
worldly rapids
I hope not just so the Quest 2 can run VRChat at better performance. If they relax limitations you get the same performance of Quest 1.
jagged trench
they're probably not going to relax the limit as that would split the platform in 3 and they would probably want the performance upgrade.

thats dumb ;-;

As long as this problem is not resolved i probably won't get a Quest 2 and stick with my Quest 1 as long as i can. Don't like the fact that they could just brick my new Headset.
No wonder why it won't get sold in Germany. That practice wouldn't last one second in court.

steep crescent
@quasi needle banning people and rendering their hardware and purchases completely useless is also very illegal here and i think they know that. They'll have to do something before they can release it in Germany. They'll easily face lawsuits that way if someones FB account gets banned while connected to the Quest.

i got a vr gear question
so im bran new to vr chat and im looking for 1 a better head set that not my crap 5 year old xbox one ear head set. 2 looking for a cheep but fuctionable rp head set and controller's, any sugetions?
haughty coyote
so there is no handtracking in quest for vrchat?
just got a commission done which only works with hand gestures thinking that worked on quest smh
woeful cypress
@steep crescent I still dont understand the big deal about it honestly.
The thing is that you do need to comply with FB's TOS else it's definitely fine to close accounts obviously.
It's the platform that the headset bases on.
Steam would also shut you down with all your purchases if you violate the TOS badly for example.
steep crescent
yeah but how did i violate. Got basically closed for no reason.
didnt used any fake information
everything i provided is used for several years actively like email and phone number.
haughty coyote
is this available with the quest?
i finally figured it out, the avatar i got does it based on this, just want to know if quest does this i guess
woeful cypress
Gestures are a thing, yes.
haughty coyote

i think the software has problems im using a usb 3.0 but thinks its a 2.0, i tried every usb 3 port nothing fixed it, i tried disable and enable it in device manager and nothing worked, my cable is not even broken so it has to be a software problem im dealing with, i also updated my bios and also did nothing, so what can i say? The Oculus software is trash
ruby owl
What’s it called when your avatar can do a dance or pull out a gun or something? Is it a special emote and can you do it on quest?
quiet vigil
Its just an emote, and yes quest avatar can do it as long as the avatar creator made the option available.
ruby owl
Oh ok and how do you do it? Do you have to make a gesture with your hand?
quiet vigil
The two ways most avatar are setup are either when you make a specific gesture the item appears, or by going into your emotes (expression menu) and activating a toggle.
ruby owl
Okay thanks I wanted to know cause I’m getting a quest 2 so thanks again

Hey, has anyone else here been experiencing the issue of trying to make a facebook account after purchasing the Quest 2, and having it immediately disabled? Because I've never had a facebook account, so I made one, and it was immediately disabled, and I put in a ticket, and they just got back to me saying my account will remain disabled for "Breaking TOS and partaking in suspicious activity on my profile".
How is this even possible if I've just made the profile? The only thing I've found so far on this is the same cookie cutter email everyone else has gotten when they try to ask for help. I don't need a $649.00 paperweight...
steep crescent
Yeah, exactly this type of stuff is why it won't be sold in Germany (cause they would get dragged to court by someone and lose). Unfortunately you can't do anything right now. It's against ToS to even make a new account afaik. So you would risk to get banned again.
I heard rumors that Facebook is making a firewalled Facebook Account system just for VR usage. I wish they would just keep that thing with the Oculus Accounts. They're getting bad PR now.
quartz cargo
Since Link apparently works over USB 3.0/2.0 now, what's it like? is there a very noticeable difference in quality over the official cable?
actually, I will compare it with YouTube

You definitely dont want to use 2.0 if not absolutly nessesary.

Personalized ads (data collection) eventually leads to a social credit system from what I've heard.
thick storm
Social credit system?
agile coral
Imagine your regular credit score system, right, which is used by the banks and the credit card companies to evaluate the risk of lending you money.
Then there's what's called a social credit score which is basically based upon your reputation.
But the catch is that it limits you from doing certain things in real life.
Imagine you're a political dissident that posts inflammatory stuff online.
And so you're credit score is low because you say / point out things that they don't like.
Then the government prevents you from getting airline tickets, being able to buy tickets to use the subway, barring you from being able to buy a firearm.
And so it snowballs and they strip away your rights surely but slowly.
Check out the Patriot Act and what's going on all around the country now with the pandemic.
Here's the big picture:

My guardian screws up my stuff pretty often and maybe try starting it up in seated play before you stand and sit up straight, it might help since that's what I have to do. also check your floor level and make sure everything is working on that end

i will look into that , thanks for the advice!

summer nexus
I'm sure this has been asked a million times, but will VRChat take advantage of the Quest 2 and offer more content previously impossible on the original Quest due to hardware limitations?
woeful cypress
Quest 2 is better, but not even anywhere closely to PC.
Q1 is still struggling at parts despite the limits, so Q2 should allow you a somewhat smooth experience given that.
In terms of content avaiability that's on the creators optimizing and publishing for the Android platform.

Guess I'll just have to bear with the limitations until the 3070 releases, going to get that one for PC VR

Guys I have a very serious question and I really need your help on this one.
My laptop is the Acer Nitro 5 specs are Intel Core i5 7th Gen, 16 GB RAM, and Nvidia 1050ti graphics card.
I'll have the Oculus Quest 2 soon so I was wondering if it's possible to use the Quest 2 with my laptop via Virtual Desktop?
tall remnant
You’re right below the required spec for link, so I don’t think VD will fare well either
Keep in mind that even if you’re close to minimum spec, your GPU is encoding and running VR, so if it’s struggling with VR already it’s going to be even worse
If you’re still gonna get the headset, try ALVR first since it’s free. It might give you an idea about the performance on your machine instead of buying VD first and refunding
haughty coyote

@tall remnant What's ALVR?
tall remnant
It’s a free alternative to VD
It only streams games though, VD can do more I think
It’s available through side quest too, since you need that for VD anyway
haughty coyote
As long as I can see PC avatars that's good enough for me
And not this
Keep in mind that even if you’re close to minimum spec, your GPU is encoding and running VR, so if it’s struggling with VR already it’s going to be even worse
@tall remnant This would be my first VR experience so I'll know once I get it I suppose
tall remnant
You can’t view avatars not built for Quest unfortunately, there’s no way around it
That’s actually the first time I’ve seen someone with a PC-only avatar tho, but that’s my experience
I think regardless if you can take advantage of your laptop you’ll be good with whatever the Quest has built in, I’ve played both and I got used to the perf on the Q1
Crossing my fingers it gets better on Q2 :-p
btw the Quest version cant set it’s perf limit below Poor, so VeryPoor avatars are blocked (I’m not surprised many avatars are on this rank). If you select a user tho you can manually unblock their avatar, and you can view pretty much everybody with this method
haughty coyote
What about through Virtual Desktop? Will you be able to see the PC avatars?
